Sta-Kon RAA24 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire sizes does the Sta-Kon RAA24 parallel splice take?
The RAA24 is sized for 22-20 AWG stranded copper wire, which is the range its red insulation color codes for in nylon insulated terminals. Red barrel insulation on this family always means the small 22-16 AWG class, so if you are splicing 18 or 16 AWG you want the next step up rather than forcing this barrel.
2) Is the RAA24 splice rated for 600 volt circuits?
Yes, 600 V is the rating on this nylon insulated splice, which covers standard line voltage branch circuits, control wiring, and fixture leads. It is also UL recognized under file E9809.
3) What is a parallel splice used for instead of a butt splice?
A parallel splice joins two or more conductors entering the barrel from the same side, so both wire tails run side by side and exit together. A butt splice takes one wire in each end for an inline run. Use the RAA24 parallel type when you are tapping or combining leads at a device, panel, or fixture whip and both conductors come from the same direction; use a butt splice when you are extending a single run end to end.
4) Can this splice be used in a hot location like a light fixture or near a motor?
The nylon insulation on the RAA24 is rated to 105 degrees C, so it holds up in luminaire compartments, ballast boxes, and other elevated ambient spots where a vinyl insulated splice at a lower rating would soften. Nylon also resists abrasion better than vinyl when the splice gets pushed into a crowded box.
5) Is the RAA24 splice barrel copper or aluminum?
Copper. That means it is intended for copper conductors only, not aluminum building wire, which needs a dual rated AL/CU connector with the appropriate compound.
6) Do I need a special crimper for the RAA24, or will pliers work?
It is a crimp splice, not a mechanical or screw connector, so it needs a controlled crimp from a terminal tool matched to the 22-16 AWG insulated range (the red die station on most insulated terminal crimpers). Pliers will not produce a repeatable crimp and the connection can pull out or heat under load.
7) What is the exact part number and is the RAA24 made in the USA?
Order it as Sta-Kon RAA24. It is manufactured in the United States, which matters for Buy American and domestic preference requirements on government, healthcare, and institutional work.
8) How do I tell this red splice apart from other Sta-Kon splices on the truck?
Two cues: the red nylon barrel marks it as the smallest wire range, and the RAA24 designation identifies it as the insulated nylon parallel splice for 22-20 AWG. Blue and yellow bodies in the same family cover larger conductors, so color alone sorts the bin quickly.
